10 Powerful Photoshop Skills/Techniques You Need to Know

Without a doubt these are among my personal favorite features in Photoshop, but they also happen to each be fairly unknown features-especially if you’re newer to using Photoshop. These are features that are going to push your Photoshop game through the stinking roof! In this Photoshop tutorial we’ll take a look at a good mix of things like liquefying facial features, frequency separation, color lookup tables (LUTs), selective sharpening, calculations, and MORE! Make sure to leave a comment below and tell me what your favorite feature is!

Man I've learned so much from this video. I think this is one of the best if not THE best list of skills/tips for photoshop video I have ever watched. Hat off to you, and thanks.

[@cappadon5635]

Really amazed with the hair selection, I always have a hard time with that. We're taught to use refine selection but your method works a lot better.

[@msoltero23]

One of the most useful tutorials I've run across on KZbin. I really like your delivery and style. Keep up the good work!

[@tutvid]

Love it. Thanks so much! 👍

[@IamWillMatos]

Amazing tutorial. I love how fast you talk. you get to the point without ranting and I love that. Very easy for my creative ADD mind to pay attention without getting "bored". You have skills my friend. Thanks!

[@ChristopherGuillou]

Awesome stuff, many of these I hadn't heard of and also straight to the point ! Thanks !

[@sinevapeilua2861]

I really enjoyed this video, I'm fresh out of uni and still learning as I go but man have you made things even more entertaining. Thank you so much 👌 would highly recommend this to all my peers.

[@adrianfarhan2659]

Hi .. I'm new to this whole photo editing .. can u suggest me what kind of software do i need to use and learn ..

[@ckkoshy]

Bb

[@MwanoVinny]

great video, whats the effect you use in the intro? the image effect

[@kalumander]

Hi, although I find your video to be awesome, how is it possible you're working on a monitor which isn't an IPS panel? Ps. For the whole first minute, you can clearly see that image distortion on your screen is extremely yellow.

[@Gravitytubes]

Selection transform is a super useful feature. When I first saw you use that in another tut I was like... wait, what? how? where? and forgot about it. But now that you showed it, it is committed to memory, and is a very valuable tool, as simple as it may seem. I can't count how many times i needed this feature and didn't know about it, Than you, again!

[@raekhan]

Very informative and well presented. Will definitely be checking our your other content. Quite a few techniques that I would find useful in daily practice. Thanks a lot for the great quality tut. Cheers.

[@youshimimi]

Amazing video, thank you!! I thought I knew PS pretty well, but this showed me I still missed a trick or two

[@simfor]

Amazing! Great techniques and great presentation! Thanks from Germany

[@phuanhmatrix]

Great tutorial, thanks buddy!

[@PadenClayton]

Awesome video, I learned a lot of new tricks. The frequency separation and calculations are awesome.

[@markbonilla3639]

I've learned a lot from you sir. Really! This is one of the best tutorials I've seen.

[@drumbum7999]

you're a beast man. I don't really work with photoshop or illustrator but your tutorials are very thorough and well thought out.

[@nicholasfaithful7708]

I've been using photoshop since 1995, just messing about at school but really started to get to know it in 2000 at college. Continued using it at uni and been professionally designing since 2005. I watch your videos and always learn something new. A lot of the techniques and tools I'm already familiar with but your videos are stacked with great tips and really enjoy learning from likeminded people like yourself. Keep up the great work dude.

[@tutvid]

Nicholas Faithful thank you so much!

[@timkulp3676]

Thank you, very useful Techniques! These are very important and helpful for achieving various tasks in Photoshop. New Liquify features are my favourite.

[@fatfreel33tsauce]

Awesome tips, I'm a graphic designer and I think I've just gotten too comfortable with doing ways I've always done. Time to retool and kick it up a notch

[@TheYellowFlashLight]

The hair selection portion of this video was mind blowing. Checking out your hair selection tutorial next. Thanks.

The last of the quick tips is quiet neat! :) Makes aligning something so much easier, especially when you're working with dozens of layers and the magnetic guidelines is becoming useless

I'm using CC 2019 but when I run Liqufy it appears to be an older interface and is Definitely missing some of those features. Would you happen to know why? ( I've tried it with and without using Graphic Processor)

Great tutorial. I usually forget about frequency separation. Don't get old;).

[@benjaminobrien6432]

Your hair method was pretty clutch, I'd been using the quick selection tool and then select and mask to get that detail but even then it felt more like a guessing game. I'm definitely going to try it out, thank you for taking the time to do this video.

[@tutvid]

Thanks, Ben! Calculations is pretty kickbutt!

[@darrenrowlands7848]

Amazing tips, really helped me out. I've one question, the grading you've done on the image around the 5:25 mark 'djk', I have seen some bloggers with moody grading very similar to this, it's a look I really admire. I've been looking everywhere to learn how to grade images like this. There are a lot of adjustment layers going on in that image, is there any way you'd be able to share how you did this with us please?

[@vlas73]

great videos, do you have any about best setting for phostoshop?
